Saint Margaret Mary Alacoque Keep this story for the next 3 weeks to complete the activities in this fun pack! Margaret Mary was born in Lhautecour, France in 1647. She lost her father when she was young, and all her family’s belongings were put in charge of a relative who left her family poor. Even when she was very young Margaret Mary had great love for the Blessed Sacrament and spent her time in prayer instead of playing like most kids her age. It is said that she was paralyzed for four years, and after taking a vow to Our Blessed Mother to consecrate herself to religious life, she could miraculously walk again. In 1671, when she was 24 years old, she entered the Visitation Convent in Paray, France. She chose to do the jobs that she liked the least, offering up her sufferings to God. She had many visions of Christ, many where he implored her to establish a devotion to His Sacred Heart. Because of her visions, she was mocked and persecuted. But she persevered in the mission Jesus gave her. Her love for the Sacred Heart of Jesus was the focus of most of her life, and she helped establish the feast of the Sacred Heart. It’s said that Jesus called her “the Beloved disciple of the Sacred Heart” and would receive all of it’s treasures. The devotion to the Sacred Heart wasn’t even officially recognized until 75 years after she died in 1690. Margaret Mary’s feast day is on October 17th and she is the patron saint of those devoted to the Sacred Heart, those who have lost parents, and those suffering with polio.
